Charybdis is one of the titular antagonists of the 2006 book Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters.
History[]
Taking her ironclad, the CSS Birmingham, through the small strait between Scylla and Charybdis, Clarisse La Rue decides to take on both monsters because she wants to destroy them, much to the chagrin of Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase.
The group is pulled closer to Charybdis's whirlpool and Percy tries to control the water to get the ship away but Charybdis overpowers him. Clarisse orders her undead crew to fire their cannons at Charybdis once she's in range. Three shots hit her but they have no effect. Clarisse demands they continue firing and Charybdis abruptly closes her mouth. She releases a blast of water that heavily damages the CSS Birmingham's hull. One of the cannonballs Clarisse had ordered fired is shot right back at her ironclad and hits the ship, causing even more damage. It is quickly discovered that the ship sailed too close to Scylla thanks to Charybdis's water blast.
